| Description | Algebra is the foundation of modern mathematics, and you need to know algebra if you want to study any science. This is a standard first course in algebra, intended as the first year of a four-year high-school math sequence. We shall use a standard textbook, Foerster's Algebra I or equivalent (depending on what is good, cheap, and readily available), and I hope to cover all the material in the text in one year. There will be several hours a week of homework, because you cannot learn algebra without actually doing it. |
